24、There was a young man who was in trouble. He went bankrupt (破产) and his wife went away from him. From then on, failure (失败) was all that he had seen. Struggling (斗争) with this, he went into the forest alone. There, he met an old man who had lived there for a long time. He shared his story with the old man and asked “Can you give me one good reason not to give up?”
“Look,” the old man said, “Do you see that fern (蕨类植物) and bamboo there?”
“Yes,” the man answered.
“When I planted the fern and bamboo seeds (种子), I watered them carefully. A few days later, the fern quickly grew from the land,” the old man went on.
“However, I watered the bamboo seeds for years, it still didn’t sprout. But I didn’t give up and continued looking after it. In the fifth year, a small sprout came out of the land. After a few months, the tree grew very, very tall.”
“The little bamboo tree had been growing underground in the past four years, developing a root (根) strong enough for its ground growth in the fifth year. If it hadn’t done this, it would not be so strong. So you know, all the time you were struggling, you were actually growing strong roots,” the old man said.

25、My problems started after I went to a boarding school. I was only 14, and at first I missed my family a lot. I often called them and cried on the phone. But after two weeks, I found I enjoyed being with my classmates at school.
I had many friends who were boys. I thought of them as my best friends — but only friends. I never guessed my friendships with boys would become a problem.
Then, three months later, my friends told me that some teachers and girls said I was hanging out with boys all day long in order to get attention from them. Seven months after that, the head teacher Mr. Wang asked the class to choose some students to join the Students’ Union. I thought I could win for I was doing well in school. I’d already won prizes for the best math and English exams. A week later, the list came out and it didn’t include me. I was sad.
Mr. Wang came to me and said, “Don’t be sad. I know you’re excellent! Maybe you’re a little distant from the girls in our class. They don’t know much about you, so some of them didn’t choose you. It doesn’t matter. Do your best to get along well with everyone and I think you’ll make it next time.”

26、I know I’m not an ordinary (普通的) ten-year-old kid. I mean, sure, I do ordinary thing. I eat ice cream. I ride my bike. I play ball. I play video games. Things like that make me ordinary, I guess. Also, I feel ordinary inside. But I know ordinary kids don’t make other ordinary kids run away screaming in playgrounds. I know ordinary kids don’t get stared at (盯着) wherever they go.
If I found a magic lamp and I could have one wish, I would wish that I had a common face that no one ever noticed at all. I would wish that I could walk down the street without people seeing me and then doing that look-away thing.
But I’m kind of used to how I look by now. I know how to pretend (假装) I don’t see the faces people make when they see me. We’ve all gotten pretty good at that kind of thing: Mom and Dad my elder sister Via, and me. Actually, I should take that hack: Via is not so good at it. She can get really angry when people do something rude to me. Like, for example, one time in the playground, some older kids saw me and made some noises. I don’t even know what the noises were exactly because I didn’t hear them myself, but Via heard them and she just started shouting at those kids. That’s the way she is. I’m not that way.
Via doesn’t see me as ordinary. She says she does, but I know that if I were ordinary, she wouldn’t feel like she needs to protect me that much. Mom and Dad don’t see me as ordinary, either. They see me as special. I think the only person in the world who realizes how ordinary I am is me.
My name is August, by the way. I won’t describe what I look like to you. Whatever you’re thinking, it’s probably worse.
【1】Why does August think he is not ordinary from Paragraph 1?
A.Because he eats ice cream just like other children.
B.Because he likes riding a bike on his way home.
C.Because he often plays video games at school.
D.Because he makes other kids run away screaming.
【2】What kind of person do you think Via is according to the passage?
A.Via is rude and often shouts to others.
B.Via is kind and loves her brother very much.
C.Via is impatient and always gets angry easily.
D.Via is silly and not good at getting on with others.
【3】What can we infer from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?
A.No one knows what August looks like.
B.August is not good at describing things.
C.August is a shy boy and likes staying alone.
D.August may have a very special appearance.
27、 Dr. Charlotte Uhlenbroek recently returned to London after filming her second series, Jungle. It was difficult, 19-week trip,during which she explored the rainforests of Borneo, the Amazon and Congo, travelling around using variety of means of transport, including hot-air balloons and canoes. "I'm interested in the way animals communicate with each other. It was sometimes dangerous making the program—I even went swimming with piranha(水虎鱼) fish. But the worst thing was insects. On one occasion, I had 70sand-fly bites on my arm. Luckily, I didn't get sick. I prefer not to take tablets every day, but if I get a fever, take some medicine immediately."
Filming the series was exciting, but also frightening at times. Her most challenging experience was climbing a 100-meter tree in Borneo, as she has a great fear of heights. "I had to keep pulling myself further and further upwards. All I wanted to do was get down again. Suddenly the safety equipment didn't look very strong and I thought that my ropes would break and I would crash to the ground."
What did she enjoy most about returning to London? "When I've been away in hot uncomfortable conditions for a long time I dream about an ice-cold drink and my bed at home! But the thing I look forward to the most is nice long showers. There wasn't much water in some of the places we visited and I worried that I was using it all up and not leaving any for my colleagues on the camera team!"

B.Making her first television appearance, Charlotte explores some of the wildest places on earth.
C.Charlotte looks at ways in which the animals of the rainforest manage to live beside their human neighbors.
